As I have gotten older I have noticed that the MOST important beauty is accessory is FLAWLESS skin. In the future - it will be the difference in you being 40 and looking like you are 30 and being 40 and looking like you are 50 (did that make sense) I get compliments all the time on my skin and basically it's because I take care of it. I try (note ... I did say try - lol) not to sleep in makeup. I use a cleanser morning and night and moisturize...moisturize...moisturize!!! The best line I have found to date is
Philosophy. I LOOOVE their cleanser called Purity made simple and they have this cute little kit called
makeup optional skin (because basically...that's what we all want - right?) and it includes a whole bunch a great stuff including hope in a jar one of Oprah's favorite things (gotta love that...lol) and a vitamin c microdermabrasion peel that doesn't leave your skin red!!!! FAB!!!! They also carry this at
Sephora if you are interested and don't want to wait for shipping (I never do - I am all about the instant gratification...lol!!) Now...you don't have to follow my suggestions, use what works for you but all the makeup in the world doesn't help or hide skin that needs help. So for Pete's sake use SOMETHING!! That way you can be pretty and relaxed waking up in the morning instead of dashing for your makeup bag while your man is asleep!!!!
